1991 Map of Tidewater

About this map

The low-lying wetlands of western Levy and Marion County dominate this 1991 landscape, where the transition from dense hydric forests to emerging developments is clearly visible. The settlement of Tidewater sits near the southwestern edge, adjacent to the distinct Old Railroad Grade that speaks to the area's earlier timber or transit history. To the east, the geometric street patterns of Rainbow Lakes contrast sharply with the surrounding natural features, signaling late 20th-century residential expansion into the Florida interior.
